Keep reading to find out everything we know about Lidia’s job, what she does for a living and more! 

What Is ‘90 Day Fiance’ Star Lidia Morel’s Job?

Lidia is a lawyer and she received her degree from the Universidad Tecnológica de Santiago. Her skills came into use during season 4 of The Family Chantel when she attempted to mediate a situation between her son and his then-wife Chantel Everett.

“As a lawyer, I have always worked to make reconciliations with each party,” the matriarch explained during an August 2022 episode. “And in the case of Chantel and Pedro, I saw it as a good opportunity to help them reconcile their marriage.” 

What Else Does 90 Day Fiance’s Lidia Do For a Living?

Apart from her position in the legal field, the TLC personality earns a check for her appearances on both The Family Chantel and the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. 

“90 Day Fiancé pays their cast members $1,000 to $1,500 per episode,” a source told Radar in January 2019. It was reported that the cast’s compensation works on a sliding scale and landing a spot on a spinoff will earn a higher payout.

Lidia is set to document her overseas romance with respiratory therapist, Scott Wern, on season 3 of 90 Day Fiancé: Love in Paradise. The pair initially met online and the TLC series is set to document their first in-person meeting.

“I am a 56-year-old woman, who’s only had one relationship,” Lidia told producers before the U.S. native’s arrival, in a teaser clip shared by Us Weekly. “I hope Scott is worthy. Because I didn’t wait 12 years of my life for a tiny thing.”
